The concept of surgically altering the eye to correct refractive errors has been considered for hundreds of years, but only in the past 60 years has interest grown considerably due to the development of modern refractive surgery techniques such as astigmatic keratotomies to correct astigmatism induced by cataract surgery and future technologies currently being investigated. Modern refractive surgery is more involved than setting the correct parameters on the laser. Patient selection and examination, proper technique, and postoperative follow-up for potential complications are essential for a successful refractive procedure. Critical evaluation of new techniques is vital to avoid the pitfall of overly exuberant enthusiasm for new and unproven methods of refractive surgery.Kellum K. Refractive surgery.

通过外科手术改变眼睛以矫正屈光不正的概念已经被探讨了数百年,但直到过去60年,由于现代屈光手术技术的发展,如用于矫正白内障手术引起的散光的散光角膜切开术以及目前正在研究的未来技术,人们对此的兴趣才大幅增长。现代屈光手术比在激光上设置正确参数更为复杂。患者的选择与检查、恰当的技术以及对潜在并发症的术后随访对于屈光手术的成功至关重要。对新技术进行批判性评估对于避免过度热衷于未经证实的新型屈光手术方法的陷阱至关重要。凯拉姆·K。屈光手术。《奥克施纳杂志》2000年;2:164 - 167。
